We will be learning about life cycles of different types of animals. Your child will be participating in a webquest with their cooperative group where they will become "experts" on their animal and its characteristics and life cycle. They will produce a final project that they can share with the class. Each student will also be producing an ALL ABOUT _ book to share what they have learned about their assigned animal.
Lots of work, and lots of FUN!!!
